drunken lies

a man's breath smells like rafflesia plant,
their lies, can be smelled even across the mile
the same lips that give you drunken kisses
with the same tongue that touches all your curves and sides.

if my tears can be bottled and stored for awhile,
you will taste a few years later, the most poignant wine
lingering on the back of your throat - you gulped
you'll know that i know what you do (all this time).
